Do you speak French at an “intermediate” level? Would you like to practice with others in your community?
(Prière cliquez ici pour la version FRANÇAISE)
The library wants to facilitate a French conversation club for adults. The club would meet at the library. The 1 hour timeframe would be spent in conversation – this club is not for those just beginning to learn French. (The club is not for those wanting a “class” format or those wanting to learn grammar. Please use online resources for those needs.)
Discussions might centre on specific topics. Examples of prompts for the first few club meet-ups:
- Introduce yourself and tell us about your family or job
- What is the best or most difficult thing about your job?
- Talking about the weather. Which season do you like best?
- Do you like to travel? Where would you go if you could go anywhere and why?
- Do you like to cook? Talking about foods
- What’s going on this week in town?
It’s anticipated that club members will manage conversations / prompts on their own as people get comfortable with meeting together.
Are you interested? Club will start mid-January 2023
Please send an email to Jill – jmccubbin@mississippimills.ca – stating your interest and your facility with French. The club will meet during the afternoon (beginning no later than 4:30pm) – perhaps every 2nd week. Please include your day/time preferences. Marie Traversy is facilitating the club.
All who email with their interest will get a reply with information, as plans for the club solidify. Thank you!
